A Sorcerer in the Detective World

Takeda's house, inside the courtyard.

Takeda Ryuuji was still standing in front of the car, looking at the old lady Chie who got out of the passenger seat with a surprised look on his face:

"Mom? Why are you in the car too? Did you go out with the three of them just now?"

"Hmm..." Old Mrs. Zhihui responded dully, recalling what Shu Yunwen said before, "The spider demon may have come," and ordered with an ugly face, "...Long Er, I feel a little tired, go back first It’s time to rest in the room. As for you, just go to the Puppet Warehouse and ask the Master of Souls if there is anything you need help with..."

"Ah? What? That spirit exterminator?" Takeda Ryuuji frowned, "...Aren't they pretending to be mysterious? How can I help? Speaking of which, he actually said something just now, 'Spider demon might be possible' Been here', it's so funny..."

"Ryuuji, do you think this is funny? Have you ever thought that maybe the spider demon has really come?" Old Mrs. Chie turned to look at Takeda Ryuuji, her face still ugly, and said seriously:

"...that Lord Spiritual Exterminator is a truly spiritual person. When you talk to him, you must be respectful, do you understand?"

"Uh...yes!" Takeda Ryuuji looked at the old lady's serious expression and couldn't help but nodded.

Old Mrs. Chie ignored Takeda Ryuuji and continued to walk to her room. Takeda Ryuuji curled his lips disdainfully and looked at the car in front of him: "... What a spiritual master, mother, she really believed it, really Ridiculous... uh... uh..."

As Takeda Ryuji spoke, he looked straight at the car in front of him, and cold sweat suddenly broke out on his forehead——

He remembered that the exorcist, his girlfriend and the little girl got out of the back seat of the car. His mother, Chihui, couldn't drive at all and was sitting in the passenger seat. The driver's seat was always empty, there was no one at all... Then...

Who was driving just now? !

…

Evening, nine fifty-five.

Shu Yunwen, Tsukamoto Sumi, and Haibara Ai walked out of the puppet warehouse together, glanced at Takeda Ryuji who was standing in a daze in the yard, and quickly walked into the nearby storage room.

In the storage room, Takeda Misa was hiding among a pile of debris. After seeing Shu Yunwen and the others, she quietly wanted to hide underground.

Shu Yunwen asked Cheng Shi and Mingmei to block Takeda Misa's way.

He opened his mouth and asked: "Miss Takeda Misa, where do you want to go? And... didn't I ask you to follow Xiaolan, Kazuye, and Detective Koshimizu to protect them? Why are you here?"

Seeing that there was no way to hide, Takeda Misa could only walk out of the pile of debris and whispered: "...Yun, Yunwen-sama..."

Shu Yunwen looked straight at Misa Takeda, who felt guilty for a while and lowered her head involuntarily. Shu Yunwen continued to ask: "...Okay, since you are here, let me ask, About five minutes ago, Mr. Takeda Shinichi was killed in the room on the second floor of the puppet warehouse. Do you know who did it?"

Misa Takeda opened her mouth, then lowered her head in silence, without answering.

Shu Yunwen looked at the death aura and demonic aura on Takeda Misa's body, and said coldly: "...Miss Misa, you may not know that my pair of [yin and yang eyes] can not only see the soul, but also see To, distinguish all different kinds of breaths. I can see the real cause of Mr. Takeda Shinichi’s death at a glance! He was killed by a spider demon, right?”

Shu Yunwen paused, then continued to look at Takeda Misa: "...The spider demon killed Takeda Shinichi, why did you destroy the scene and pretend to be hanged? She has already killed your family, Do you still want to protect it?”

"...She, she...I..." Takeda Misa looked sad, and then whispered, "...I'm sorry...I, I don't want my family to see my father hanged by spider silk. I'm afraid, I'm afraid I'll scare them. Besides, she, she is my mother after all..."

"But it has already killed many people!" Shu Yunwen looked at Misa Takeda seriously, "...Miss Misa, do you still want to let it continue to kill people? I have already found the Spider Lake and found it there. The human skin that remains after being eaten by it... Do you really want to see new human skin again?!"

Shu Yunwen asked coldly. Misa Takeda also thought of the human skin in the Spider Lake and Takeda Shinichi who was almost eaten by the spider demon before. She struggled and shouted loudly:

"No, stop talking! Please, stop talking! I'll help you..."

"...I'll help you find her and kill her!"

…

The second floor of the Puppet Warehouse.

The light in the room where the crime occurred was very dark. Conan and Hattori Heiji asked Takeda Yuzo to stand outside the door, and the two of them checked the condition of the body together.

Hattori Heiji stood on the stool, touched the neck of the corpse, and said: "...It can't be helped, the person is already dead. However, judging from the body's body temperature, the deceased should have died not long ago..."

Conan lay on the ground and observed while saying: "...After the deceased was hanged, the murderer deliberately placed a lot of fishing lines around the body... Oh, Hattori, do you still remember the spider fairy Mr. Ryuji and the others talked about before? A legend, right?”

"Yes, of course I remember it, and I remember it very clearly..." Hattori Heiji nodded, "... Ridiculous prisoner, does he want to use these tricks to create the illusion that the Spider Immortal is causing trouble and killing people? He is too much You underestimated our detectives..."

Conan nodded "Yeah", then suddenly picked up something from the ground, with a strange look on his face: "This is..."

"Pushtack?" Hattori Heiji frowned, "...Did you pick this up on the floor?"

"Yes! What do you think this thing is used for?" Conan asked casually, Hattori Heiji held his chin and thought, and then the two of them stared at each other, unable to understand.

Conan narrowed his eyes and turned to look behind him: "... Damn it! Where did that guy Shu Yunwen go? If he were here, maybe he could find some clues..."

"...Who knows? That guy went out just now...Forget it, the first priority is to call the police first!" Hattori Heiji said, turning to look at Takeda Yuzo:

"...Mr. Yongzo, could you please go to the police first?"

"Uh...ok." Takeda Yuzo nodded and looked at Hattori Heiji with a suspicious look on his face, "...I remember that you said before that you were a detective?"

"That's right, my name is Hattori Heiji. I'm a fairly well-known detective in Osaka." Hattori Heiji introduced himself, "...I received an anonymous commission letter before, saying that I would meet again here. A living puppet was killed by a spider, but I didn’t expect it to actually appear now..."

Conan stood up, walked slowly to Hattori, and said with a smile: "...But in the final analysis, this is just a murder committed by the murderer in the name of Spider Fairy. Although it is not clear who the murderer is. , but the murderer probably sneaked into the room through the small open window, hung Mr. Shinichi to death, made him look like this, and then left through the small window..."

"What? In and out through a small window?" Yuzo Takeda was stunned for a moment, then said, "...But, that's impossible, right? The small window in this room can only accommodate one child at most..."

"What did you say?"

When Conan and Hattori heard this, their expressions suddenly changed. They quickly ran to the small window and took a look, and then their expressions became serious:

"...Ha...it seems more interesting now..."

"Yes!" Hattori Heiji nodded, "...I remember that before we entered this room, the door was locked from the inside, right?"

"Well, that's right." Conan turned his head and glanced at the body, "...Mr. Xinyi's weight is not light. It is not something a child can do to hang Mr. Xinyi from the beam. From this point of view, This has become a..."

"...Secret room murder case..."
